Wanjie plays Collapse Iron: It is very simple to fill it in next time

"Originally, destroying the record, taking the parts, and blaming the monster would allow Rocky to forever hope for the day when the repeater would be repaired."

After sighing, Bernard gave Xing the choice of whether to tell Rocky the truth.

He took out the red and blue copies of the communication logs.

[The red one contains Leslie's true response, which also includes the truth about Xingzhen]

"Honestly, with Rocky's personality, even I can't predict what impulsive actions he'll take after learning the truth."

[The blue one is the record forged by Bernard - Leslie rejected Rocky]

"Don't think this is cruel. Rocky won't have to wait for her reply anymore. He still has a chance in life."

Bernard handed the two records to Xing: "Let's call them the Red Truth and the Blue Lie. Take them and think about them carefully. Rocky is still waiting for your news."

"This is your last chance. Once you make your choice, there's no turning back."

"Take the blue pill, and that's it. Just think of it as a sleep. When you wake up, go on with your life."

"........."

Morpheus looked at the sky screen a little embarrassedly, and continued with a stiff upper lip: (The Matrix)

"Choose the red pill and continue your journey through Wonderland. I'll show you how deep this rabbit hole goes."

Neo looked at Morpheus, who was holding a pill in each hand, and then looked at the star in the sky holding two records.

Without much hesitation, he grabbed the red pill.

"I choose to accept the truth."

…………

"You should choose the red record."

Paimon looked at Ying with some uncertainty.

But she nodded firmly and said:

"Rocky has a right to the truth."

A glass of juice suddenly slid in front of Ying, and she turned around to see Diluk standing in front of the bar.

"He's an adult and can take responsibility for his own choices."

…………

“Sometimes hiding the cruel truth that cannot be changed may be better for the person involved.”

Walnut said thoughtfully.

"What do you think, Keqing?"

"What the Hall Master said makes perfect sense, but one day he will have to make his own decision..."

[Xing comes to Rocky with two records]

"Hey buddy! You're back! While you were gone, I wrote another poem, 'Ode to Leslie.'"

[Rocky immediately greeted Xing excitedly]

"You fixed the repeater, right? I see you're still holding the backup translation... Hey, which one is mine?"

After a brief hesitation, Xing decided to lower Rocky's red record. She believed Rocky should know the truth.

Chapter 34 To: Dim Star (End)

[After a while, Rocky came back in a daze]

"How could this happen... Leslie agreed to my confession, but the part about the star tremor... I, I can't wrap my head around it..."

"It seems... because of the gravitational effect of the star tremors, every month that passes for her is equivalent to decades of mine. Doesn't that mean that by the time she returns, I'll be as old as Master?"

"He looks so sad."

Alicia suddenly turned her head to look at the other side of the hall, where a young girl with long green hair appeared. (Honkai Impact 3)

"Dear Mebius, what do you think?"

"Romance and private affairs are detrimental to academics! They are not up to standard!!!"

Mebius looked at Rocky in the sky and snorted coldly, as if he was blaming Rocky for his resentment towards someone.

"Mebius? My dear Mebius?"

Alicia could only watch as Mebius twisted his waist like a water snake and disappeared into the depths of the corridor.

[Xing sighed, but still said affirmatively: "I think so."]

"She went to the future. And I stayed in the present... Is that so?"

[Rocky muttered to himself absentmindedly]

"Then the long time I've been missing her has been nothing more than a fleeting moment to her. I never imagined that even time could be unfair to us."

【“…………”】

[After a long silence, Rocky spoke again]

"So, expecting her to come back is unrealistic. Even if she travels for months and crosses light years, I'll already be an old man in my time coordinates."

[“Spending a lifetime waiting for someone, enduring endless longing and loneliness…”]

"Honestly, buddy, you don't really think I'm that naive, do you?"

"Are you giving up?"

Tanya Degurechaff nodded approvingly. (Tanya's Chronicles)

“Instead of pursuing unattainable goals, giving up on stop-loss orders is a clearer choice.”

Thinking that Rocky could live a peaceful life in the Black Tower Space Station, while she was tricked into the battlefield by Existence X, Tana couldn't help but feel angry and mad. She clenched her fists and roared:

"Damn you 'Existence X'! Just watch me. I will definitely make a name for myself in the safe rear areas and secure a stable future."

Unexpectedly, Rocky suddenly covered his face and laughed:

[“Haha! Of course I won’t wait for her! I won’t wait!”]

[“…” Xing remained silent and did not respond. She did not know what the correct answer was.]

[Obviously Rocky doesn't need her answer]

"I won't wait... but I'm going to chase her. I'm going to catch up with time!"

"Since her space-time curve has become a canyon, instead of waiting for her to emerge, why don't I just cross it?"

"It might take me ten years to find her, who just lived a month ago, but our time will flow at the same speed from now on. It's better than sitting here and waiting to die."

"Hiss~ What he means is..."

Mei Raiden, who had already guessed Rocky's thoughts, gasped in surprise. (Broken)

"Well, he's planning on heading to where Leslie is."

Bronya's expression remained unchanged but her pupils were slightly dilated.

"Mei, if it were you, I would chase you no matter how far away you were."

Kiana pounced towards Raiden Mei like an albino golden retriever, but was caught by the vigilant Bronya controlling the Heavy Armor Bunny and hung in the air by the back collar.

"Bronya will protect Mei-nee."

Bronya stood between Mei and Kiana, and opened her palms proudly towards Kiana.

[“Don’t you think so?”]

[Still without waiting for Xing's answer, Rocky continued:]

"No, no matter how you look at it, I've made up my mind! I'll greet Master as soon as possible, pack my bags, and head out to find Leslie."

"I'm tired of staying here... As a staff member of the 'Black Tower - Universal Geography Department', I've never even seen the real Milky Way. Telling anyone about this will surely make people laugh."

"I think you're just as curious as I am about what kind of scenery lies in the deep sky."

"What's in the universe?" Xing asked curiously.

[“The magnificent and lonely wonders, the dangers of unknown beauty, and the person I’ve been searching for…”]

[When mentioning danger, fear inevitably emerged in Rocky's eyes, but after mentioning Leslie, the fear was immediately covered by determination]

[“When I find Leslie, one day, I will come back and tell you everything I saw on this journey…”]

"At that time, I will ask you to be our bridesmaid. Please don't forget this promise."

"Then this poem is for you. Goodbye, my friend."

[Darkness lines up in the distance. In an almost cruel way]

[Dissecting time. Asking about love, the petals have already fallen.]

Like a ticking clock in infinite space and time. We have no choice.

[One can only slide into the ominous trembling of the universe, like sliding down a slope at dusk]

[Just like this, the stars are still enjoying the music above our heads, and their elegant tired faces will be seen along the way. ]

Looking at Rocky's receding figure, Leona sighed: (Kill the Red Eyes)

"Courage is commendable, but..."

Leone was not optimistic about Rocky's decision. Ordinary people without any strength would face many dangers when moving between the cities of the empire, not to mention that Rocky had to cross a distance of tens of thousands of light years and face monsters like the Antimatter Legion.

Leone, who has lived in the slums for many years, has seen many courageous young people, but the endings of most of them are not good.

"He knows the risks he faces and all we can do is wish him the best of luck."

Lubbock raised a glass.

"Well, good luck to him."

Leone drank the wine in one gulp.
